First Sucker

Aunt Jenn decided that Sophie needed her first sucker on Halloween. Once she figured out what it was she loved it!!

That is kind of an onry face.
What is Momma trying to give me?

mmm.. that is good.

Don't take it away from me. That is some serious concentration!

Tongue action

Going for the whole thing.

Happy Halloween!

So we are a little behind in the blog world. If only Sophie would take naps... So I will attempt to play a little catch up. The Thueson kids came trick or treating to our house. They crack me up! The Twins were Grandma and Grandpa. Griffin was riding a skateboard and check out his candybag! He made the perfect Grandma! Caden was sporting the Bentley "no butt big gut" syndrome. Halee was the cutest witch I have ever seen and well Sydnee was quite the "Raggedy Ann." Sophie was a chunky little kitty. We should have dressed her up as "Lil Sumo." No Costume would have been required.

Halee's B-Day Party

My neice Halee turned 9 yesterday. She wanted a Hannah Montana Birthday Party. Jenn called to see if I would come and help her do their hair and makeup. The girls all got dressed up and then they walked down the red carpet and did a little karaoke to Hannah. Oh to be nine again! It was hilarious to watch! Sophie had a great time with Uncle Eric! I think I have found a babysitter. Just don't tell Grandma Kaye.

The Birthday girl shines in the spotlight!

All of the Divas!

Sophie and her cousin Caden. I think he will be a great babysitter too!

Baby Sumo

We took Sophia in for her 2 month check up on Monday. She now weighs 13.1 pounds and is 22 inches long. She is our little chunk! We love all of her rolls, and you just can't help but pinch her chubby little cheeks. I sent this picture to my parents before we went down there and my Mom thought that I had photoshopped her head onto another body. No this is really her, and we love every single inch of her!

Baby Sumo Sophia - She is going to kill us someday for this picture!

Kanab

So it has been awhile since I have had time to sit down and post. I will try to play catch up. We went to Kanab last weekend to visit my parents and also to take Sophie down to see her Great Grandparents. We had a great weekend! Thanks Mom and Dad! Ryan went hunting with the Dad and Aaron, and Mom and I watched the baby and the puppies while working on blankets for Mexico. We love the new hot tub! It was so relaxing ! We can't wait for Dad to get his central line out to really be able to enjoy it. Anyway, we were worried about traveling with Sophie because she usually hates her car seat, but she surprised us. She slept the whole way down and the whole way back. It truly was amazing! We will have to go to Kanab every week. It was so good to see Grandma and Grandpa Heaton. They gave her the cutest book! Perfect for our soon to be little tomboy. She loves it already!

Grandma Merlyn and Little Sophie

She finally decided that Grandpa could hold her. Grandma has little Max.

Our Beautiful Baby

So yes we know that we are proud parents. We just can't help it when we have a little girl that looks like this. I took these pictures the other day, and Ryan has been teaching me how to have a little fun in photoshop. This is what I came up with. We love our little Sophia!!!!

Madison B-Day Party

We went to my neice's B-day party last night. It was so much fun! Lacey and Nate did a great job putting it together, and Maddy was hilarious! She definitley knew it was her day! They had a balloon guy come and the kids and adults loved it! Sophie got a little frog because she is our "little frog." She keeps her legs scrunched up to her chest just like her Momma did. He made a tank for my main Army man! Thanks for the fun night!

Maddy and her Daddy

The Balloon Guy making Spiderman for Gage.

Whose the Favorite Auntie?

So there is always a battle in our family as to who is the favorite aunt! We all claim that we are the favorite. This was shortly after Aunt Jenn and Aunt Lacey were trying to convince Sophie who is her favorite auntie. Sophie says that we love both of them just the same!

Sassy

Halee aka Sassy came over during the conference break and afternoon session. We had a great time making Heather's yummy Pride of Iowa cookies. She had just the right touch with Sophie. I am excited because Jenn's kids are going to be just the right age to babysit for us.

Halee rocked or bounced her right to sleep.

This one is for you Josh! I had to take a picture of her shirt because Josh gave Halee the nickname Sassy several years ago.

Study Time

Sophia is sacked out on Daddy's belly has he tries to study. Normally he is asleep too once they get in the recliner.

Momma's Lifesavers

Besides both sets of grandparents these are Momma's Lifesavers. I wouldn't be able to get anything done without Daddy, the swing and the bouncer. Ryan always laughs when I put her in the swing or bouncer and then run to jump in the shower. It usually buys me about 10 minutes. I am not complaining because at this point I will take what I can get. Sophia has turned our lives upside down, but we wouldn't change a thing. What a blessing she is in our lives! She is definitely a keeper!

The Bottle and the Burp

We are trying to see if Sophie will take a bottle so that I can go to Young Womens and leave her with her Daddy. This was a successful attempt yesterday after church. She managed to fall asleep while Ryan was burping her, so I couldn't pass up the photo opportunity.

Jealous Cousin

Maddy was not happy that her mommy was holding little Sophie. She climbed across the couch to the recliner just to let Mom know who is number one! Maddy what are you going to do when you get a little brother or sister?

Wild Sleeper

So normally when Sophie goes down for a nap or bed she is swaddled up snug as a bug and she usually stays that way. Well yesterday I went in to check on her and this is what I found. I have no idea how she managed to get the blanket up over her head, and obviously she had some good kicking action going on. I guess it is time to strap her in the bouncer because she has become a wild sleeper!

Daddy Time

Sophia and Mommy both love it when Daddy gets home from school. This is her "Daddy Time." I love this picture! There is just something about Daddys and their little girls.

Onry Faces

Ryan loves the faces that Sophia makes when she wakes up. He calls them her onry faces. He captured them on film the other day. We sure do love this little girl!

Please don't wake me up!

The yawn!

Not Yet!

The big stretch.

Maybe I can prolong it a little longer.

The scream! I am hungry now!

The Binkie

Momma finally let me have a binkie. Sometimes I really like it and well other times it just doesn't quite do the trick.

Our Little Angel!

I love Grandpa B!

Sophie loves her Grandpa! It is a good thing he was there to fix her little neck after she was born. Those dang forceps were brutal!

Sucking on her hand again!

Sophie's First Real Bath

The pictures say it all!

I was happy to start with.

Not now! Daddy is trying to keep me modest for the camera.


Still screaming!
